With the final week of the regular season upon us, three teams from the NFC West are in the top five in the odds to win the Super Bowl. The Los Angeles Rams, the favorites for the last several weeks, are now tied with the Seattle Seahawks (+550), while the surging San Francisco 49ers are +850.

Teams that have started Sam Darnold have gone 27-6 in the past two seasons. However, the Minnesota Vikings saw Darnold start to fade before his worst two games closed out the season and the San Francisco 49ers are hoping to get the same outcome in Week 18 this year .

NFC West title in Week 18. Here's where San Francisco stands in the playoff picture and what a win over Seattle means for seeding.

Despite their mountain of injury issues this season, the San Francisco 49ers find themselves within reach of an NFC West title and the No. 1 overall seed in the NFC heading into week 18. The Niners are hosting the Seattle Seahawks on Saturday, Jan. 3, the winner of which will claim both of those honors.

The 49ers were 4-11 when Trent Williams missed games entering the season. They went 1-6 last season, as his injury derailed the offense. Williams started last week, but went out after one play. The 49ers proceeded to score 42 points and win the game. Pleasants was not perfect, but he held it down and replaced someone who was deemed irreplaceable.

The Bears and 49ers proved Sunday night that they have the offensive horsepower to go that deep in the postseason, engaging in a duel at Levi’s Stadium that featured 936 total yards, 58 first downs and 10 offensive touchdowns.

The 49ers surely wouldn't mind seeing the Rams fall apart at the seams on the eve of the playoffs, and that's what appears to be happening.
